In the new pieces of the Perlée collection, this iconic element continues to bring versatile designs, and French designer Arthur Hoffner creates visual displays through art installations, revealing the colorful and joyful atmosphere of Perlée jewelry.
Arthur Hoffner creates eye-catching window displays for Van Cleef & Arpels worldwide boutiques, using spheres, aluminum tubes, and marble as elements, and creating a harmonious contrast through warm pink, blue, and gold colors. Contoured and delicately colored beads are placed within, bringing a rich visual effect and a sense of playfulness.
In addition to the decoration of the store window, the 3D animated short film created by Arthur Hoffner and Van Cleef & Arpels is also impressive. Echoing the ingenuity of the window design, Arthur Hoffner adds bright colors, matching with sculptural elements and flowing ribbons in the short film, depicting elegant and harmonious lines, highlighting the jewelry’s dynamic temperament. The beads in the Perlée series lively dance and slide around, with the jewelry instantly changing to different shades!
